  For anyone who struggles with racing thoughts and constantly expecting something to go wrong, Clara Hartley’s anxiety quiz might help make those patterns easier to recognize.

  I have lived near a city centre for 27 years and after years of the escalating noise, light and air pollution, being around and experiencing very angry people and mentally ill people, road rage, hostility and combative energy most of the time, I'm moving to the country next year. This isn't how I see the world, this is how the world has become by design mostly. I grew up in a very abusive household amd developed CPTSD and living near the city centre has only exasperated it to the point that no amount of meditating, and grounding practice will keep me from having symptoms daily to varying degrees. I hope everyone who needs and wants it finds their peace in which ever way they can.

  So amazing that this phrase is still relevant: "that which we resist persists"

  This all is in alignment with THE BODY KEEPS THE SCORE.  Childhood trauma survivors have  severely damaged vagus nerve and we must pay attention to this.   Abuse and neglect majorly affects negatively the endocrine system.  I have learned so much from the above mentioned book.   There’s so much to be learned and implemented to facilitate healing our endocrine function in order to go from  chronic disregulation to finally be able to regulate our nervous system.  We literally have to understand this is our metabolic system and we must learn how to calm it down by breathing exercises and organic fruits & protein consistently.  I could go on & on with what I have learned but this has significantly changed my life and with God’s help I can do this.  7/6/25.

  Crying is also a good release for both emotions and physical tension. As I found out after being accidentally hit in the face by my children’s skipping rope handle..it sorted a neck pain I had up to then.

  I have to say, for people who have gotten REALLY good at dissociation and repression, really good at not being in their body, it&apos;s nearly impossible to know when their in or out. <br>At 58 and having been looking to change my mind for 20 years, it&apos;s only now that I can consider I may be repressing more of my life than living it.<br>Feelings are alien, my memory of people, conversations and situations is really low and I can relate my idiopathic afib to my body screaming out for relief. Along with scoliosis, allergies, eczema, asthma and Crohn&apos;s that nearly killed me, alcoholism and cigarettes just about nailed me too. My heart will be the last option and I&apos;m finally seeing how I have to absolutely refuse to give in and also find ways to release my traumas that resulted in an ACE score of 10.<br>Brutal life work.<br>Thank you for speaking the language that speaks to me, Jonny.<br>Even finding the right therapist is a challenge.<br>Never give up.<br>Express, express, express. <br>Be a good coffee bean.<br>:)

  Anxiety only partially resides in the body and it&apos;s more of a downstream effect of the cyber part of our lives. Anxiety is flowing into us from our pockets wrists and ever-present black mirrors that we cannot nor want to avoid. No doctor will reach a holistic conclusion until they take that into the equation of our new cyber body and mind reality. I wish I were permanently stuck in the 80s and 90s 😢<br>We are no longer in charge of creating our own maybe even helpful for survival form of anxiety, we sold that ability to our feduo-cloud-cyber-capitalist warlords in exchange for modern comforts that will eventually lead us to our downfall.

  My grandmother, born at the end of the 1.800, in Sicily, &quot;thought&quot;with her belly. She always told me to &quot; always listen my belly&quot;

  I don’t care what data people try and use to dispute this but the global economy broke in 2008 and the social contract between humanity and government was destroyed in 2020. It’s never going back to how it was and the longer we pretend both are gone the more painful our experiences will be.
